C. e ALL-DAY SHOWING at Pasu time Theatre Thanksgiving f Day. Screening of greatest e production of year, "The Crus sades" begins promptly at 10 a. m., Thursday, November 28, ^THURSDAY?BOONE, N. C. .Says Cheese Is Wholesome Fpod 1 For more than 3,500 years cheese j 90 to 99 per cent, digestible, has been j one or the staple foods of the human race. Today it is eaten in every country . of the world, and it fits into tiiousands of menus, said W. L. Cievenger, . dairy manufacturing specialist at j State College. j ] There are now more than 400 va- { rieties of cheese known to man. Over!. 200 varieties are produced in America alone, Cievenger stated. Although this country produces . more cheese than any other nation, consumption here lags behind that of , other countries. In the United States i the annual consumption is five pounds per capita. The hardy Swiss average 23 pounds a year for each man, woman, and child. Holland, France, and Denmark have a per capita consumption of 13 pounds, with England and ' Germany averaging nine pounds each. 1 Cheese has beer, r.n important ra- f' tior. of armies almost from the be- i1 ginning of time.. It is a regular part 1 >f the diet of soldiers in the stand- J ing army of the United States. ; Cheese is rich in calcium, phos- ' phorous, and other milk minerals so 1 important to the maintenance of health and vigor, Cievenger pointed 1 out. It is also a good source of Vitamins A, B, and G. When combined with rice, bread. macaroni, or potatoes, for instance, it adds proteins to their carbohydrates to make balanced and appetty,i?ig dishes. Vegetables and cheese in casserole dishes, cheese souffles, cheese pudding. cheese with eggs, with fish, with salads, with deserts?all are tempting and nourishing. Urges That Farmers Grow More Soybeans "The crying need of most North Carolina soils is for more organic matter. "Soil3 need plenty of organic matter to supply plant food, to keep them mellow and friable, and to make crops less subject to drouth. "Organic matter helps the soil absorb moisture and hold it. This checks erosion in rainy weather and keeps the land from drying out rapidly in dry weather. "Soybeans greatly increase the organic matter in the soil, when plowed under, and this is one of the reasons why I recommended that farm- , era raise more soybeans," said C. B. | Williams, head of the agronomy de partment at State College. A good crop of soybeans will produce from one and a quarter to two tons of plant material on each acre, i Each ton of soybeans contains as | i ? , i hhhhhbbbshdhhhbbbbhhhbbb ' PASTIME I THEATRE- !

'hen the crop is cut fcr hay, they dc tot add any nitrogen or organic matter to the soil. The beans may be fed to livestock but they tend to produce an oily meat. So it is recommended that the beans be crushed into meal with the bil removed. Soybean meal may be fed without any bail effects, it was sointed out. Professor Williams urges growers to save the best seed for planting next year. If they have a surplus, they may sell it at a fair profit to tlicir neighbors. TIMELY FAKM QUESTIONS Question: Is it all right to use a young rooster for breeding that was batched and raised at home?
